We’ve applied our expertise in glass science, optical physics, vapor deposition, precision forming, and extrusion to design and develop a 21st century glass container to protect 21st century drugs. Valor® pharmaceutical packaging technology enhances the storage and delivery of drugs, providing more reliable access to medicines essential to public health.

Corning Valor® Attributes

Chemically Durable Drug Contacting Surface

Innovated from the inside out

Chemically Durable Drug Contacting Surface

Valor® pharmaceutical packaging meets USP Type I hydrolytic criteria with a pristine, chemically durable drug contacting surface. The composition and uniform interior surface of Valor® containers eliminate delamination and have low extractable concentrations – making them ideally-suited to protect drug products. Potentially harmful elements such as arsenic are not added to the Valor® Glass composition.

Resists Damage and Breakage

Giving medicine the protection it deserves

Resists Damage and Breakage

Valor® packaging is the ultimate solution for all pharmaceutical filling environments. It is inherently strong and damage resistant, making it better able to withstand extreme events during pharmaceutical processing and field applications. These more robust pharmaceutical glass vials and containers also reduce down time due to glass-related interventions and provide enhanced protection for medicines in the hands of end users.

Valor® is engineered with higher internal energy than conventional packaging. Damage introduced on filling lines or during shipping can create sub-visible flaws and cracks in conventional pharmaceutical packaging that can compromise drug product sterility and result in serious contamination. Valor® is uniquely designed to prevent cracks and improve the quality of pharmaceutical packaging. This brings a higher level of protection to parenteral drugs and reduces the likelihood of global drug product recalls, supply interruptions, and drug shortages.

In addition to eliminating delamination and dramatically reducing the probability of cracks, breaks and the risk of contamination by glass particles, the Valor® pharmaceutical packaging technology enables smoother filling operations. Use of Valor® containers reduces line interventions, enabling lines to run at much higher speeds with improved yields. This results in more reliable access to medicines for patients around the world.
